1) Just like you have proof of Mlat claiming to be king since you save the CC's. You know what show me that proof and I'll say publicly that I believe you went to those schools.........wikipedia notable pennsylvania alumni. I'm on that list. Ask mlatsko if he said it or not. Like I said, I've never lied...and have no reason to lie.
2) Backtracking? From what who went to a better school? Who is smarter? You think that outside the realm of HD I actually give two $$hits about anything involving you? See, you again miss the point, I don't divulge where I went to school, or what my degrees or occupation are not because I am somehow worried that my schooling doesn't stack up; I dont have the need to throw my life in the face of randoms; I also don't have the misperception that I'm somehow better than a gas attendant or any other job you find the need to be dismissive of. ........no you're backtracking from the challenge you threw out there. The point was you claimed to be more intelligent than me....all I asked for is proof. You refuse to offer any after a challenge. Your views of the world and people are irrelevant. All we want is proof. Without proof, you lack credibility.
3) You are now making two different points here. 1) That it (Ivy League Education) somehow makes a person smarter, which it doesn't. 2) "Understanding the value..." This has nothing to do with intelligence which is what you wanted to make the conversation about AND is a seperate subject by itself...that being "The impact of an Ivy League Education" there have been many papers written on the subject. Whether you choose to believe it or not, Ivy league education does in fact make you smarter. It's a completely different way of learning that you cannot do anywhere else. That's why they're elite. They only take the best of the best and are only taught by the best of the best. You can't honestly believe a University of Arkansas education learns the same as UPENN? On to your second point, I realize the impact and only a small fraction is the "education". It's more about contacts and doors opening.
4) See, you don't control this conversation. And you say you dont care but many months since you've raised it you haven't moved on which means you do. I've said to you many months ago, answer my questions and we can get into other things. But I'm not closing one subject until its been finished. I will however, check out again in about 20 minutes or so and return in a couple of weeks when I can use a good laugh and drag you into the same childish rants and corny insults......I'm going to say this nicely, but I've answered your questions more than a handful of times. Just because you don't like the answers or can't comprehend them, doesn't mean I haven't answered them. And I do control this conversation....because, just like a puppet, I get you into this EVERY time I want. I lead you around like dangling a carrot in front of a horse. I'll set you up, and you'll predictably give me the exact answer I was looking for, and then I smash it out of the park, thus making you look stupid. It's like hitting a ball off a tee. And every few weeks, I get bored and decide to provoke you so I can do it again. You're entertainment.
